    This would be nicer, IMHO: 

    perl -MLWP::Simple -e"getstore('http://myfoo.com', 'myfile.txt')"

    [download]

    Not sure what the tassex really wants though. Do you (tassex) want to store the HTML in a .txt file (like above), or do you want to strip the HTML and save the text?

    All code is usually tested, but rarely trusted.
